The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Might I suggest that this discussion of Dollar General be transferred to the Dollar General board?

As a recent shareholder I am interested in the discussion but (a) it is confusing and partially redundant to have it on 3 boards (also Falling Knives) and (b) it is probably not of much interest to fans of Berkshire who are not investors in DG, and the dozens of posts on the Berkshire board is verging on being disrespectful to them.

In the same vein, might I mention that there is also a reasonably active board called Retirement Investing? I realize that the Berkshire board is where the action is, but it would be possible to post something like 'OT: annuity strategy question for Jim', and then post a one sentence teaser with a link to your post on the relevant board.

Thanks for considering this suggestion - DTB
